Questing is very nice, by far the best it's ever been. Hopefully endgame can maintain this standard of quality.

My favorite thing is that when completing quests in the same area, when you finish the gather/rescue/kill ones, the quests that require you to gather items from enemies appear to boost to 100%. No more wasting ten minutes gathering bear asses long after you've done the other three companion quests.

As an example, in Spires of Arak you need to destroy six wind serpent nests with a quest item and gather wings from the serpents. After blowing up the four nests and listening to your companion's dialogue, the wings from the serpents all dropped from every single kill after that. Same thing in Nagrand with the artifacts and earthen cores.
